According to press notes, Red Noir "combines metaphors of the film
noir genre and reflections on modern life in our economically and
ecologically trouble ridden war culture. Set on the Lower East Side,
with an array of vivid characters whose lives intertwine, the play
follows a female detective as she investigates a black market deal
done by many greedy hands and pursues two men, each carrying a valise
one filled with a nuclear or toxic substance; the other filled with
the seeds of the future."

Clinton Street.
